Back to the story:

-Y/n P.O.V.-

Once we were done with supper the doors had closed already. We gathered the wood for the fire.

I was in the woods getting some branches and random logs when I heard a crack of a branch coming from behind me making me jump.

"Hey y/n!" I heard a scream.

"Yeah" I yelled back while when turning around.

"Sorry for scaring you. Do you need help bring that back" I saw Newt approaching me. He held his hands out taking half of what was in my hands.

I don't know what it is with him, but my stomach turns when I'm with Newt. But not in a bad way. It's like a nervous feeling almost.

I thanked him and started walking in front of him back to the fire pit. I was walking a little fast because I just wanted to get over to the fire.

I saw Alby trying to start the fire but failing. I put the branches I had down and got on my knees to help him.

"Here, let me help" I told him. He passed me the matches and I started the fire after a few short minutes.

"So, what do you usually do during the day around here?" Newt asked looking over to me.

"Well... whatever needs done really. Sometimes we work in the garden we're building; we build things like the homestead or the bathrooms or occasionally we just sleep in all day." I replied.

"What about tomorrow? What are we doing?" he asked after a minute.

"Well, I was thinking we could go in the maze? If you're up for it?" Alby said. I knew he was mostly talking to me and about the 'episode' from last time.

"What about you and Newt go out tomorrow and I'll stay here so I can try to... find something here to do. I guess?" I said uncomfortably.

"Yeah, of course Chipmunk. Maybe try and find something to make other than fruit and a sandwich every meal." Alby chuckled.

"I'll try, Albs"

-Time skip to later that night-

I was getting kinda tired, so I decided to head to my hammock for the night.

"Alright boys, I'm going to bed, it's been a long day." I yawned.

"Okay, goodnight y/n" Newt said back.

"Goodnight Chipmunk." Alby said getting up and pulling me into a bear hug. I hugged back and said goodbye one more time before heading to homestead for the night.

I changed into a pair of shorts and an extra T-shirt I had laying around and got in my hammock.

I closed my eyes for the night, letting sleep envelop me once again.

-Time skip to the next morning-

The day after the bonfire, I woke up to both boys gone. I went over to the kitchen and saw them both sitting at a table eating the usual.

"Morning" I groaned.

"Hey Chip. How'd you sleep?" Alby said while walking over to me giving me a hug like he did every morning.
